For those new to fields like robotics or aerospace, it can seem at first glance that a problem like moving a robot arm or flying an RC airplane might be simple problems to solve. It turns out, however ...

PID loops are a central component of modulating boiler control systems with applications ranging from basic steam header pressure control to cascading 3-element drum level control. A modern ...

The induction motors has been widely used in various industries due to its robustness maintenance free operation, better efficiency and lower cost. In different industries, wide range of speed control ...

A proportional integral control algorithm designed into Oven Industries’ 5R7-573 open-board temperature controller adds more precise control to thermoelectric (Peltier effect) modules A proportional ...

The introduction of inverse feedback and control loops incorporating it was a brilliant advance in the history of engineering, but it was soon followed (probably on that very same day!) by the ...

At Maker Faire Milwaukee this past weekend, [basement tech] was showing off his latest build, a PID controlled charcoal grill. While it hasn’t QUITE been tested yet with real food, it does work in ...

I built an electric oven using salvaged parts from a toaster and added a PID controller for consistent temperature. This oven can reach up to 300°C, making it ideal for tempering knives and melting ...
